Paintball shooting spree: A trio of teens in Spokane cruised through some neighborhoods yesterday shooting paintballs at people walking down the street. Five people got hit, but cops soon got the shooters before any more splattering was done. One person was treated for injuries.

Two people died when a car went into the Green River at Tukwila early this morning, KING 5 is reporting. The car was apparently speeding when it went airborne and crashed into the water.
